Sidbury Aqua

Name: Sidbury Aqua
Brand: Colefax and Fowler
SKU: F4764-03

Sidbury Aqua is a neat small-check fabric with a soft, cool aqua cast and a quietly tailored feel. The tiny grid reads fresh and airy rather than bright, with the pattern softened by the fine woven texture.

About this fabric

Woven in 84% Linen and 16% Viscose, Sidbury Aqua has the dry, lightly textured look you expect from linen, with just enough viscose to give the surface a gentler, more settled finish. The 140cm width and approx. 4cm vertical and horizontal repeat make it straightforward for upholstery, cushions, or relaxed blinds and curtains. In this colourway, the check is especially restrained: a pale aqua-blue over a light neutral ground, creating a cool, washed impression that feels crisp without becoming stark. The small-scale pattern keeps the fabric visually calm, while the woven structure adds a subtle depth when the light moves across it.

How to use it

Use Sidbury Aqua where you want a smart but unfussy layer of colour, especially against bleached woods, pale oak, or chalky painted finishes. Its cool aqua note works well in airy seaside schemes, but the tiny check also keeps it grounded in more classic interiors.

The crisp mini-check and cool aqua tone suit tailored upholstery or refined curtains.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Sidbury Aqua without fighting it. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
